[QUOTE="Tarantulafeets, post: 199478, member: 36666"] Welcome to the forum! The t webbing up the entrance is a do not disturb sign, so I would just leave it alone for a few days until it settles in. Don't spray water at it, as pressurized water and air will annoy them, and a better way to keep the humidity up is to moisten the substrate by using a pipette, pretty sure Tom Moran has an example on his sling care videos on youtube (he also has a specific care video for H columbia, if there is anything I missed.) Also, keeping track of humidity isn't that important, but rather the amount of water they drink. The internal fluids inside the t is what helps it separate itself from its old exo, not the amount of water in the air, so I would just put in a water dish (bottle cap, legos, etc.) And overfill it once in a while. It doesn't look like it's in premolt, but I could be wrong. Btw, are you using a glass enclosure? If so, I would make sure that there is ventilation of some sort... And what do you mean by they/them? Are there multiple in the same enclosure? [/QUOTE]
